Top rated Bellefonte cat sitters
“I never worried about my two girls while recently away. Kelly kept me up to date with visits and went out of her way to assist. Even figured out and reset two automatic feeders!”
“I would never use anyone but Marissa as long as she is willing. She is kind, genuine, devoted, communicative, and more! I am VERY worrisome typically and had no worries at all with Marissa taking care of Toro! :)”
“Caroline is such an incredible sitter. My cats took a liking to her almost immediately, even though they are very anxious, and she made them feel very safe. We also had some last minute requests that we needed for one cat, and Caroline was so accommodating. She is amazing with communication, and really does go above and beyond. I couldn’t recommend anyone better.”
“Samantha was extremely reliable and took great care of our cats during drop in visits. She even managed to get out shy cat to visit with her when she came to our house.”
“Alora did an amazing job watching my pets. She was able to take on the task on short notice, which was very much appreciated! Definitely will rehire in the future. 10/10 would recommend.”
“This was the first time Tara came to take care of my three Spaniels. She had never been in my home previously, so to my canines, she was a stranger. It seemed not to matter. Certainly they understand if someone stops by we are going get fed ! ! Tara came by twice in one day. All went well and she sent me pictures and updates during both of her visits. I look forward to having Tara as a dog sitter in the future.”
“I could relax and enjoy our trip knowing my cats were in good hands! Chloe sent detailed reports each visit and I came home to happy cats! Would definitely book Chloe again!”
“Tracy seemed genuinely interested in the well being and activity needs of my pup. She was prompt and took good care of her. I plan to continue to using her services when she’s available.”
“Virginia went above and beyond caring not only for my cat but also a special package. A plant was delivered to my house and Virginia found a pot, found some soil, and made sure it was happy and healthy! She truly is the most kind and thorough cat sitter I’ve had”
About: Hi there! I was raised on a crop farm and grew up surrounded by animals of all kinds. My extended family owns cattle, dogs, cats, and more—so caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life. I’m comfortable with pets of all sizes and temperaments, and I treat every animal like family. Whether it’s a walk, cuddle, or just company, I’m here to make sure your pet feels safe and loved I’m pretty flexible during the week and can often do last-minute bookings. I occasionally travel for work on weekends, but I’ll always keep my calendar updated so you know when I’m available! I live on a farm, so there’s plenty of space for animals to roam, play, and go to the bathroom comfortably. I make sure pets get lots of attention, exercise, and affection while keeping their routines as close to home as possible. Whether it’s feeding on time, giving them space to explore safely, or just offering calm companionship, I care for each animal with patience and love. I treat every pet like they’re part of the family!
“Lauren took great care of my kitten, Hagrid. She has excellent communication, so I knew he was in good hands while I was away. I appreciated her taking the time to play with Hagrid and send video and photo updates.”
About: I've taken care of several family dogs well into being senior and cared for my neighbors dog who was also a senior. My current dog I've had since she was 1.5 months old and has grown to learn to use bells for potty time and previously used a button to request food and knows to sit, lay down, and responds to shake with both left and right paws. I've cared for seniors and puppies. From bathroom time, walks, feeding with and without special diets and supplements, command work, crate work, and general cleaning for messes that may be made, I've done it all. Every day if you're ready or not is an adventure with dogs and as someone who works full time and is constantly doing yard maintenance I still always make sure to set time aside to keep commands and play time in the mix to ensure they stay engrained. If I ever sit a dog at my house I have a fenced in back yard, plenty of toys, and two dogs who could potentially keep your own company under a watchful and active eye to maintain safety and comfortability.
“Jessie came for a meet & greet on very short notice. She had a notebook and asked the proper questions, dogs loved her. Very happy to have found her and feel like the dogs are in good hands for their upcoming visit with her!”
“Kristen was an absolutely super pet sitter. I have a cat who required some special attention, and she sent me daily pictures of her. Communicating with us on a regular basis was so important and I so much appreciated that I was reluctant at first to try somebody, I did not know, but it worked out beautifully. We will use Rover again for sure!”
“Cayleigh took excellent care of my cat, Truvy, while we were on vacation! My favorite thing she did was send a picture of Truvy each time she checked in on her, which gave me peace of mind that everything was ok. Having not heard of this service before, I was a little unsure, but Cayleigh went above and beyond my expectations. She is very personable, friendly, and did exactly what she said she would do. I highly recommend Cayleigh!!”

“Sara was wonderful!! We had to book her fairly last minute. She came right away to meet the dogs and kept me up to date on the visits.”
“Crystal was absolutely amazing! She was patient with me setting up (because I work crazy hours and was a nightmare for booking), yet was good at sending reminders and updates. She took great care of my little chores gremlin and my prima dona and it was fantastic to not need to panic at all while I was on vacation. Crystal is fantastic with cats and reading cues, she was even able to give them their own areas when they were overwhelmed. I can not recommend her enough!!!”
